When you post the output of lspci, always include the -nn or -nnv switches. That 
way, we get the PCI ID. As there are several varieties of the RTL8192SE, I need 
that info. In addition, what are the details of your AP - STA configuration. 
What is the distance? Is it 802.11n or 802.11g? What is the signal strength as 
indicated by iwconfig or a scan?
